Delaware’s only Catholic bishop is imploring people of faith to ask the state's governor to veto the “dangerous and immoral” legislation on his desk.
Gov. John Carney’s signature is the only thing needed to make Delaware the 11th state to legalise assisted suicide. HB 140 was sent to Carney’s desk for his signature after it narrowly passed the Delaware State Senate with an 11-10 vote. The Delaware State House passed the legislation in April with a 21-16 vote. It remains unclear if Carney, a Democrat who has previously opposed assisted suicide, will sign the legislation.
